I carry an older whitewater rescue throw bag on my boat and thought I'd pass the idea on to the list. The link below takes you to a product page for Northwest River Supply, an outfit that markets stuff to whitewater paddlers and rafters. I won't go into how you use it unless asked, but it works great for a quick MOB situation (if you're fast, you could just release all your sheets and toss the bag instead of sailing back), and between boats and boat to dock. Tons more effective than throwing a coiled line... t http://www.nrscatalog.com/product.asp?pfid=51825 Tom Smith & Jane Van Winkle Sandpoint, Idaho M15-345, Chukar M17-064, Unnamed
